Yes but the foreskin removed is NOT functional. I really don't see what you're getting at, unless you're trying to claim the foreskin has no purpose, in which case read freedom o speech's posts.RestrictedAccess said:Yes, but the finger removed is NOT functional. See what I'm getting at?
First, it's much easier to extrapolate to understand what it'd be like to be muslim, however this is not so for sensations you have simply never had, such as the flavor of chocolate (e.g. how would you explain the flavor of salt to someone who had never tasted salt before?) or nerves you've never had. Second, I am not certain you *can* completely discount being a muslim; more precisely, sure, I agree that current-you would rather not be a muslim, but in some alternate universe where you grew up muslim I imagine muslim-you might be saying similar things about atheist-you (socialization is powerful).RestrictedAccess said:Yet it's still a personal preference. I could say I prefer being an atheist over being a Muslim because one seems more rational and reasonable, and even though I've never been a Muslim, I can infer from what I know of the Muslim faith that I'd prefer being an atheist.
And I think that unfair, for of course he likes how it looks, it's what he knows, it's what he thinks of when he thinks of "my penis", he simply knows nothing else.RestrictedAccess said:In much the same way, a person may not have had the opportunity to know what it's like to be uncircumcised, but they can still infer that they'd prefer it based on what they know of it - such as the difference in how they look.
